Foza Yusuf:

Despite the Damascus government's announcement of a ceasefire, the attack continues in the Kobani countryside. A war crime is being committed: cutting off water and electricity to Kobani after opposition factions seized control of the water and electricity stations in Tabqa. Kobani is in danger. Kobani is the dignity of humanity. Defend your dignity.

The resistance of women with braided hair is spreading like wildfire...

Here in Maxmur, dozens of young girls are braiding their hair, preparing to fight against ISIS/HTS/SNA gangs in Rojava.

Jin Jiyan Azadî!

Kurdish women are flooding social media with videos of themselves braiding their hair in a symbolic act of protest, responding to footage showing a Damascus-affiliated militant boasting about cutting off the braid of a Kurdish female fighter.

The Autonomous Administration/ANNES:

🛑We are fully committed to the declared ceasefire, but the factions continue their violations.

🛑What Kobani is experiencing is not merely a military attack, but a war crime.

🛑What is happening in Kobani and the Jazira region against the Kurds is a systematic war of extermination.

🛑We condemn the brutal attacks on our people and hold the aggressors responsible for this escalation.

🛑We call on the international community and the coalition to intervene to stop these attacks.

🛑We urge our resistant people, our friends, and the world to intensify the struggle and resistance.

🛑The Kurds in all parts of Kurdistan stand united against this war of extermination.

🚨URGENT

An official at al-Aqtan prison in Raqqa:

📌 We appeal to the international coalition and all relevant parties, and we seek to have responsibility for protecting al-Aqtan prison, which houses ISIS members, transferred to them under international guarantees.

📌 We demand safe passage to reach safe areas, also under the same international guarantees.

📌 Raqqa has faced repeated attacks, and while our forces withdrew, we, as the prison's garrison, could have moved to our safe areas. However, we are aware of the dangers of this prison and our responsibilities in the face of the threat.

📌 We are under fierce attack by those trying to seize control of the prison, and we have reached the point of no return.

📌 We are without water, electricity, or fuel, and our food supplies are extremely limited.

🔴 BREAKING NEWS

ATTACKS REPELLED IN SIRRIN!

This morning, ISIS, HTS, and the Turkish state launched an attack in the city of Sirin with heavy weapons, howitzers, and tanks. In response, SDF, YPG, and YPJ fighters fiercely retaliated and repelled the attacks. One vehicle loaded with a DShK heavy machine gun, two motorcycles, and one armored vehicle belonging to the gangs were destroyed.

Numerous gang members were also killed and wounded, and fighters recovered the bodies of the gang members. A large number of weapons belonging to the gangs were also seized.

Syrian Government Media have now started to create the narrative that Kurds do not exist in Syria - paving the way for the ethnic displacement and cleansing of Kurds in Syria.

These are the same people who stated that Kurds are an integral part of Syria one week ago.

Damascus Continues Attacks Despite Ceasefire Agreement

Despite the ceasefire agreement, Damascus-backed factions continue their attacks on Kobani and the al-Aqtan prison in Raqqa.

Simultaneously with the shelling of al-Aqtan prison, which houses ISIS militants, these factions targeted the outskirts of the town of Sarrin and attacked the village of Khrouss, south of Kobani, using heavy weapons and artillery. The entire southern and southwestern countryside of Kobani was also subjected to a barrage of artillery fire, and the shelling continues as of the time of this report.

We are attaching to this statement videos published by accounts affiliated with these factions, documenting the artillery shelling they are carrying out on areas south of Kobani.

This constitutes a violation of the ceasefire for the second consecutive day. Yesterday also saw 22 violations committed by these factions, including attacks on Kobani, Hasakah, and al-Aqtan prison.

In addition to military attacks, Damascus continues its policy of collective punishment by cutting off water and electricity to the city of Kobani and preventing fuel deliveries amidst harsh winter conditions. Simultaneously, it continues to cut off water to the al-Aqtan prison in Raqqa, posing a direct threat to the lives of prisoners and foreshadowing serious humanitarian consequences.

We hold Damascus fully responsible for these ongoing violations and emphasize that the continued targeting of populated areas and sensitive facilities, including detention centers for ISIS members, constitutes a grave threat to security and stability. We also call upon the guarantor states to take immediate and effective measures to halt these violations and ensure full adherence to the ceasefire agreement.

SDF fighters spoke from the village of Addê in Til Barak.

"The region is under our control. Those who try to intimidate our people with special warfare policies should watch closely. We are here, we have given thousands of martyrs, and we will not allow the gangs to enter our lands."
